F - 111A/E Aardvark, (USAF).

The "swing wing" F-111 "Aardvark" fighter-bomber, built by General Dynamics, entered the USAF inventory in 1967. The F-111's wings are straight for take-offs and landings, or slow speed flight; by sweeping its wings rearward it can exceed twice the speed of sound (Mach 2). In all, 562 F-111's of all series were built; 96 of them were production F-111D's, 94 were production F-111E's, and 106 were production F-111F's.

The F-111 was a long-range, all-weather strike aircraft capable of navigating at low level to reach targets deep in enemy territory and to deliver ordnance on the target. Primarily a bomber, the F-111 featured a sweep wing varying between 16 degrees and 72.5 degrees, with side-by-side seating for a pilot and weapons systems officer.
